Answer:

-2,438 J energy is released

Heat energy is released

Explanation:

The formula for energy absorbed or released is Q = mT(Cp)

Get temperature in degrees T = 21 - 63  = -42°C

Mass of the cooling cooper m = 150g

Specific heat of copper Cp = 0.387J/g-°C

Put all the above parameters into the formula for energy absorbed or released

Q = mT(Cp)

    = 150 x -42(0.387)

    = -2438J  same as -2.438 KJ

-2438J energy is released

Answer:

-2438.1 J. Heat is released.
